Can't believe this label still exists. Plus, it's in a can. Rando add-on from an online shop. Rare Vos glass @home. Clear, peach iced tea-colored pour. Nose is sharp grape juice, miscellaneous berry jam, un-fermented honey & herby leafy bits. Taste is smooth, juicy & mellow berry, low tartness, low acid. Jam with too much sugar. A slightly leafy bitterness over a shell of wax. Warming, mild fizz, whimper of tannins, yeasty finish. Yup, still don't like it.

Draft. A- Raspberry, cherry, candy. A- Pink color, clear liquid, no head. T- Berries, medicinal, sweet. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, sweet finish. O- I would never order a mead on a flight but when your friends do, you oblige them to have a sip. This wasn't bad at all. Very sweet and candy like on the nose. A bit medicinal in the taste but very drinkable for sure.

Draft - Honey, sweet red berry and a touch of alchohol. Light clear pink red. Boozy honey, some light solvent and sweet red berry. Artificial, sweet and boozy.

Sample at the Manitou Wine Festival. Dark purple color, and the aroma is sweet, ripe blackberries. Notes of cloves and vanilla. Very sweet and fruity. This is a delicious, fruity mead.

Very nice. Lightly tart black raspberry with medium floral honey sweetness, earth, light spice. Semi crisp carb. Very clean/smooth/balanced. --- Beer merged from original tick of Redstone Black Raspberry Nectar on 08 Apr 2017 at 16:08 - Score: 8. Original review text:

On tap at Belmont Station Bier Cafe, pours a clear orange amber with no head. Nose brings out honey and bees wax. Flavour is fairly weak for the style, with honey, bees wax, and light raspberry. Very thin mouthfeel for the style, but the flavours are nice enough. Decent mead.

Draft at John Strongbow’s in Alexandria VA. Poured a clear dark ruby red color without a head at all. Aroma was sweet raspberry juice in dry honey. Flavor was dry, semi-sweet honey notes with a touch of fruit punch notes. Alcohol pretty well masked.
